Account
The witness stopped beside the road at night after scouting a party location, smelled a musky odor and heard a distant cry followed by a very close cry. After driving a short distance, the witness saw a tall dark-furred figure by the road, shone high beams on it, and watched it step into the trees, pause, then run away on two feet.
